Recipe preparation

Essential Ingredients

Here’s what you’ll need to make this delicious dish:

Ribeye Steak: This cut is rich and flavorful; choose well-marbled steaks for extra juiciness.
Fresh Baguette: A crusty baguette adds great texture; look for one that’s soft inside but crispy outside.
Sautéed Onions: Sweet caramelized onions enhance the flavors; cook them until golden brown and fragrant.
Cheese (Provolone or Cheddar): Choose your favorite cheese to melt over the steak; provolone gives a creamy finish.
Mayonnaise: Use mayo as a base for your sauce; it adds creaminess and helps balance flavors.
Fresh Herbs (Parsley or Arugula): Add herbs for freshness; they brighten up each bite wonderfully!
Salt and Pepper: Don’t forget these essentials; they bring out all other flavors beautifully!

The full ingredients list, including measurements, is provided in the recipe card directly below.

Let’s Make it together

Prepare Your Steak: Start by seasoning your ribeye generously with salt and pepper; let it rest at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking.

Sear The Steak: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add the seasoned ribeye and sear for about 4–5 minutes per side until beautifully browned and cooked to desired doneness.

Sauté Those Onions!: In the same skillet (because why wash more dishes?), add sliced onions. Cook them on medium heat until they’re soft and golden brown—about 10 minutes—stirring occasionally.

Melt The Cheese: Just before removing the steak from heat, place slices of cheese on top so they can melt into gooey perfection; cover with a lid if needed.

Toast The Baguette: While everything else cooks, slice your baguette in half lengthwise. Place it under the broiler for about 2-3 minutes until golden brown—watching closely because burnt bread doesn’t win hearts!

Assemble Your Masterpiece!: Spread mayonnaise on both halves of toasted baguette. Layer with sautéed onions, followed by steak slices topped with melted cheese. Garnish with fresh herbs before closing up!

Enjoy every delicious bite of your homemade steak sandwich!

Remember that every great cook has their own twist on things—feel free to experiment with different toppings or sauces!
